Initially a new frugal installation of 5.X.3.2.7 looked good on my desktop, however today I discovered a few more serious problems.
1. It cannot connect to my wired network. Attached sys-info report has info on the hardware.
2. Upon every reboot it finds the save file, says that it was last used with 5.X.3.2.7 and offers to update it.

I cannot get it to boot on my Dell laptop as it doesn't find an executable file although all iso files appear to be proper. I did try another download. If desired, I can post a copy of the sys-info report generated by Dpup Exprimo, version 5.X.13.6 on the laptop.

backi. The drivers for you should be: for ethernet: 8139cp.ko or 8139too.ko and for wireless: ath5k.ko.
Neither needs firmware, all are included.
It could be that you would need for example 8139too but 8139cp will be loaded instead.
Could you try to remove them and then reload them:
rmmod 8139cp
rmmod 8139too
modprobe 8139cp
rmmod ath5k
modprobe ath5k
and then check if they are now available.
